MLB Network, Ghost Players come to Clinton

Just over a week ago, the folks over at MLB Network partnered with Joe Scherrman’s Ghost Players from Dyersville, IA to shoot action at Alliant Energy Field for an upcoming documentary on the 1919 Chicago White Sox (aka the “Black Sox”).

For diehard Midwest League fans, one of the players involved in the shoot is former Kane County Cougars pitcher and current Florida Marlins farmhand, Nic Ungs.

The special will air on MLB Network sometime in November, but you can check out scenes from the shoot in Mr. Scherrman’s YouTube video. You’ll even see some shots of me in there, as well as Head Groundskeeper Dusty Krogman.
